Art or artless ?

[StretfordEnd]

But is it art?
by Paul Coslett

As part of the Biennial International Exhibition, Yoko Ono has created a work entitled My Mummy Was Beautiful. A homage to motherhood the exhibition includes images of a woman's breast and crotch being displayed across the city centre.

The l***rp**l Biennial 04 has begun with l***rp**l's city centre streets plastered with banners of women's breasts and crotch. The controversial artwork called My Mummy Was Beautiful has been created by Yoko Ono and is on display across the city centre and at l***rp**l John Lennon Airport.

No, scousers that got away are Cilla Cack, Jimmy Tarbuck, Stan Boardman, the Beatles . . . any scouser with the train fare in fact . . . first thing they do is leave . . .

Of course, you still have Doddy though . . .

WHY?

It's art, Yoko Ohno! says so, so it must be true ?

[The Truth]

Yoko Ono is to art what Stella McCartney is to fashion.

I'll be over in Liverpool this Thursday and I'll look forward to cracking one off beneath one of the banners and pleading artistic appreciation when nicked.

I'm sure you'll make the Echo.

How come you come here so often?
